Green Party-backed voters dropped a court case Saturday night that had sought
to force a statewide recount of Pennsylvania's Nov. 8 presidential election,
won by Republican Donald Trump, in what Green Party presidential candidate Jill
Stein had framed as an effort to explore whether voting machines and systems
had been hacked and the election result manipulated.

The decision came two days before a court hearing was scheduled in the case.
Saturday's court filing to withdraw the case said the Green Party-backed voters
who filed the case "are regular citizens of ordinary means" and cannot afford
the $1 million bond.

Looks like her fund-raising fell short.

And so, without an opportunity to revert Pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes to
the Dowager Empress of Chappaqua, Stein's recount efforts in Wisconsin and
Michigan won't matter. Trump will officially win the presidency on December
19th.

But suppose that her recounts drag out, and Wisconsin and Michigan fail to
complete them by the December 13th deadline? Well then those states won't
be able to certify their results, in which case their electors
will not be bound to Trump.

Suddenly 306 electoral votes become 280. And a ten vote margin is hardly
a mandate.

Still don't think Hillary's campaign is colluding with Stein on the recounts?
Because if you don't, George Soros has a bridge in Brooklyn he can let you
have, cheap.

There's no way that a nobody candidate who barely raised $3 million dollars
in more than 2 years suddenly finds herself awash in more than twice that
much cash in 2 weeks. Not unless a whole lot of prominent Democrats are
writing her checks. And not unless she, overtly or not, promised them she'd
help Hillary steal the election.

But wait, there's more proof that Hillary's harridan hordes are playing dirty.
PA is doxing electors,
leading to incessant harassment. Democrat Governor Tom Wolf, doing his
best to one-up his convicted felon attorney general Kathleen Kane, released
the names, addresses, and phone numbers of Trump's PA electors.

He didn't do this because he's for open government.

He did it to promote thuggery.

Remember all the holier than thou preening when Donald Trump said he "might
not" accept the results of the election? Yeah, me neither. Because the preeners
are now engaged in an all-out assault on our nation's electoral integrity.

Fortunately their machinations will amount to nought. But it goes to show us
just how low they'll sink, how they'll leave no stone unturned in their quest
for power. And thus they remind us of why we must remain eternally vigilant.

She's a Clinton. Her definition of ethics depends on what the meaning
of "is" is. But it's refreshing to know that at least some people inside her
cocoon of sycophants are willing to call out her mendacity.
An internal vetting document prepared by her campaign to examine her
"vulnerabilities" was released this weekend by Wikileaks.

Then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "disregarded ethics guidelines" to
raise more than $72 million for the U.S. Pavilion at the World's Fair in
Shanghai in 2010, taking money from big-name contributors who later "received
favorable treatment" from her State Department and also contributed to her
namesake foundation, according to a 2015 internal Clinton research document
revealed Sunday by WikiLeaks.

"When soliciting contributions, Clinton had little consideration for ethics,
as the corporations who were featured in Shanghai also contributed to her
foundation and received accolades from the State Department," the document
stated.

The corporate contributions were a boon for
Clinton, giving her a public relations win as she helped save the
privately-funded U.S. pavilion. But in doing so, Clinton
allowed the corporations to become the centerpiece of an exhibit that is
supposed to emphasize American values. As the Washington Post noted, the
American pavilion was "larded with corporate advertising" but contained "no
messages about democracy or freedom of expression or religious beliefs." In
her haste to help herself and her corporate allies, Clinton forgot the
purpose of American participation in events like the expo.

Oh she didn't "forget" the purpose of the expo. She used it to further her
own interests, which is the only purpose she cares about. $72 million dollars
buys a lot of influence, and she took good care of her corporate benefactors.

"Boeing contributed $2.25 million to the Shanghai Expo, while Clinton helped
the company land a multi-billion [dollar] Russian deal."

"Procter & Gamble gave $3 million to the Shanghai & Expo [sic] & Millions to
The Clinton Foundation; Was repaid with Corporate Excellence Award."

"Clinton solicited PepsiCo as one of the largest Shanghai Expo sponsors;
PepsiCo committed same amount to Clinton Foundation projects."

In a freshly Wikileaked exchange, Hillary Clinton's communications director
Jennifer Palmieri admits that some Clinton Foundation donors probably did
expect some favors for their money.

Writing to aides, including John Podesta, whose emails were hacked, Palmieri
discourages having Clinton answer too many questions about foundation donations
because '[t]here aren't great answers and in many cases not her place to answer
them.'

Don't hold your breath waiting for her Palace Guard Media to ask too many
questions though. They're not interested in her answers, especially the
ones that "aren't great."

So tell me again why she should be promoted to the White House? Because she'll
use that position in the same way, to enrich herself and her cronies. As for
the American people, well, we're just in her way, and she won't hesitate to
squash us like the bugs she believes we are.

A top Clinton ally's political organization reportedly gave nearly a half-million
dollars to the campaign of the wife of an FBI official who would go on to help
oversee the probe into Hillary Clinton's email practices — a tangled web
likely to fuel Republican complaints about the investigation.

The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday night on the connection. According to
the Journal, finance records show Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe's PAC gave
$467,500 to Dr. Jill McCabe's 2015 state Senate campaign. The Virginia Democratic
Party spent an additional $207,788 on the campaign, the Journal reported.

McCabe, who ended up losing to Republican incumbent Dick Black, is married to
Andrew McCabe — the FBI's deputy director.

Oh, but there's nothing to see here, because Mr. McCabe asked for ethics
advice from his FBI buddies, who of course said it was OK, and besides, he
swears he paid no attention to his wife's campaign whatsoever.

Yeah, right.

He didn't have to be "involved" in his wife's campaign to know who was
buttering her bread. And he'd have to be a fool to ignore such a large
donation from someone so obviously connected to the subject of his
investigation. He got the message, the same way his boss's boss Loretta
Lynch got a message from Bill Clinton. Hillary has friends, and
her friends are your friends. Don't screw that up.

And so like the good little weasel he is, Andrew McCabe fell in line.

McCabe continues to be involved in the email investigation aftermath. He was
called last week to brief House oversight committee members on allegations
— contained in newly released FBI files — that a State Department
official offered a "quid pro quo" with the bureau in a bid to un-classify a
particular server email.

The culture of corruption surrounding Hillary Clinton reeks. Pay to play,
quid pro quo, back scratching, whatever you want to call it, it's dirty.
Patrick Kennedy essentially offered the FBI a
bribe to take some heat off Hillary. He won't be investigated, let alone
prosecuted. If she's elected he'll be rewarded for his loyalty. That's
how the Clintons roll.

While I don't agree with everything Mr. Trump posits, overall I can say
his plan is more than a step in the right direction.

Step One: Drain the swamp!

FIRST, propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members
of Congress;

SECOND, a hiring freeze on all federal employees to reduce federal workforce
through attrition (exempting military, public safety, and public health);

THIRD, a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing
regulations must be eliminated;

FOURTH, a 5 year-ban on White House and Congressional officials becoming
lobbyists after they leave government service;

FIFTH, a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign
government;

SIXTH, a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.

Aside from term limits, which have the unfortunate side affect of further
empowering the unelected permanent bureaucracy, there's nothing in there that
won't make America better. The revolving door between the DNC, the White House,
the media, and K street must be slammed closed, forever.

Through her family foundation Hillary Clinton epitomizes foreigners and the
well-connected purchasing influence over American politics. This must stop.
She is beholden to her donors; no president or legislator should be so compromised.

Step Two: Trump's signature issue is trade, and he's laying out a bold
platform of reform.

FIRST, I will announce my intention to renegotiate NAFTA or withdraw from the
deal under Article 2205

SECOND, I will announce our withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership

THIRD, I will direct my Secretary of the Treasury to label China a currency
manipulator

FOURTH, I will direct the Secretary of Commerce and U.S. Trade Representative
to identify all foreign trading abuses that unfairly impact American workers
and direct them to use every tool under American and international law to end
those abuses immediately

FIFTH, I will lift the restrictions on the production of $50 trillion dollars
worth of job-producing American energy reserves, including shale, oil, natural
gas and clean coal.

SEVENTH, cancel billions in payments to U.N. climate change programs and use
the money to fix America's water and environmental infrastructure

Solid proposals all. The Obama - Clinton energy provisos ensure higher prices
for dwindling supply. Donald Trump understands that America needs to be a
world leader in energy production, and that the chimera of "green energy"
cannot ever be counted on. Hillary Clinton has bragged about putting coal
miners out of work. Barack Obama laughs while saying electricity prices
must "necessarily" skyrocket. Their contempt for average Americans is
palpable, and they cannot be allowed to ruin millions of lives in pursuit
of maybe preventing a dubious and unproven future calamity. People are
hurting now. Worrying about what might, or more likely might not happen
100 years from now doesn't put food on their tables.

Step Three: Respect the Constitution.

FIRST, cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order
issued by President Obama

SECOND, begin the process of selecting a replacement for Justice Scalia from
one of the 20 judges on my list, who will uphold and defend the Constitution
of the United States

THIRD, cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities

FOURTH, begin removing the more than 2 million criminal illegal immigrants from
the country and cancel visas to foreign countries that won't take them back

FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot
safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will be considered
extreme vetting.

What's not to like about any of that?

Barack Obama has ruled by executive fiat. His pen and phone can be undone,
and Donald Trump's pen and phone are mightier than Obama's.

Justice Scalia was a giant among men. His replacement must be a constitutional
scholar steeped in respect for tradition and the rule of law. You all heard
Hillary Clinton at the last debate, espousing a judiciary which issues decrees
based on emotion and liberal demagoguery. That's a recipe for totalitarian
disaster. The constitution limits government power; Hillary Clinton wants
a Supreme Court which espouses unlimited government power.

As for illegal immigration, the power of the purse is the ultimate federal
cattle prod. Sanctuary cities flout the rule of law, so they don't deserve
to share in our tax dollars. Remember when Frank Lautenberg withheld federal
dollars from states which didn't implement a 55 mph speed limit? Or when he
forced us all to increase the drinking age to 21? Well, what's good for the
goose is good for the gander. No federal dollars for sanctuary cities!

And I really like his stab at nations which refuse to take back their
criminal citizens. No visas for you! No students. No diplomats. No
guest workers. No one from your pissant little shithole gets in until
you take responsibility for your own riff raff. America First baby,
because you need us way more than we need you.

Ditto for the Mohammedan hordes. Send your refugees to live with their Arab
brothers. They've got lots of money and plenty of room. Plus they'll be
closer to home making it easier for them to go back when President Trump
crushes ISIS.

Step Four: A bold legislative agenda.

I won't quote the whole ten point plan, because this post is long enough
already. But please do go and
read it; there's a boatload of good stuff in there. Repeal Obamacare and
replace it with free market reforms. Middle class tax relief. School choice,
and a return of local schools to local control. Build the wall. Rebuild our
military. Strengthen our police and dismantle criminal gangs.

It's a lot to do. It's a bold plan. If he accomplishes half of it he'll be
well on his way to making America great again.

A top spokeswoman for Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign mocked Catholics
and evangelical Christians in a 2011 email exchange exposed by WikiLeaks this
week.

In the exchange reported Tuesday night on Fox News Channel's "The Kelly File",
Jennifer Palmieri, now the Clinton campaign's director of communications, says
that politically conservative Catholics "think [Roman Catholicism] is the most
socially acceptable politically conservative religion. Their rich friends
wouldn't understand if they became evangelicals."

That snide remark was in response to a message from John Halpin, of the
uber-liberal Center for American Progress. He was deriding Rupert Murdock's
decision to raise his children in the Catholic faith.

"Ken Auletta's latest piece on Murdoch in the New Yorker starts off with the
aside that both Murdoch and Robert Thompson, managing editor of the [Wall
Street Journal], are raising their kids Catholic," Halpin wrote. "Friggin'
Murdoch baptized his kids in Jordan where John the Baptist baptized Jesus."

"It's an amazing bastardization of the faith," Halpin added. "They must be
attracted to the systematic thought and severely backwards gender relations
and must be totally unaware of Christian democracy."

John Podesta, Hillary's national campaign chairman, called for an end to
the Catholic Church's "middle ages dictatorship" by fomenting an uprising
of astroturf groups bankrolled by the DNC.

This is mind-boggling stuff folks. It means Hillary's disdain for the Catholic
faith permeates her inner circle. And don't forget, she's already
on record demanding that Holy Mother Church reverse its stance against
abortion on demand.

Hillary Clinton essentially [said] that Christians must be forced to change
their religious views to accommodate abortions.

"Far too many women are still denied critical access to reproductive health
care and safe childbirth. All the laws we've passed don't count for much if
they're not enforced," Clinton said, using the euphemism for abortion.

"Rights have to exist in practice — not just on paper," Clinton argued.
"Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will. And deep-seated
cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed."

Got that? A President Hillary will demand that Catholics embrace
abortion, just like President Obama tried to do with The Little Sisters Of
The Poor.
The Sisters won that round. But if we allow Hillary to pack the Supreme
Court with radical pro-abortion leftists, it's game over for the Catholic
Church.

I'll say it again. A President Hillary Clinton could easily make adherence to
the Catholic faith an illegal act. She'll force us to accommodate same-sex
"marriages." She'll force us to recognize 57 different genders and open our
bathrooms and locker rooms to every new flavor of the month. She'll demand
we finance abortion, contraception, sterilization, and embryonic stem cell
research. All at the point of a gun. All with no recourse except prison.

That is not the America our Founders envisioned.

That cannot be the America we pass on to our children.

Hillary Clinton will put the government above our religious faith. She's
Henry VIII in a pantsuit, commanding the Pope and the faithful to submit
to her will. Her disdain for our First Amendment rights must be stopped,
no matter the cost. She hates us, and we cannot afford to turn the other
cheek.

Sigh. Eleven years ago Donald Trump made some really crude comments about women,
and apparently that's the worst thing to have ever happened in the history of
the universe.

Or so the liberal media would have us believe.

These are, of course, the same guys who cheer for all manner of sin —
fornication, homosexuality, cohabitation, divorce, abortion, drug use. They're
the same media which pooh-poohed Bill Clinton's many transgressions, gave awards
to Roman Polanski, Woody Allen, and Lena Dunham, snickered over the antics of
one Carlos Danger, and conveniently forgot that Ted Kennedy left a woman to die.

But now they're arbiters of morality?

Gimme a break.

Donald Trump is not perfect.

Neither am I. Neither are you.

Should he have said those vile things? No. But he has unequivocally disavowed
them,
apologized for making them, and owned up to his struggle to be a better man.

Discussing middle class economic anxieties, Clinton told a crowd at a Goldman
Sachs-sponsored speech that she is now "kind of far removed because the life
I've lived and the economic, you know, fortunes that my husband and I now enjoy."

At the Goldman Sachs Builders and Innovators Summit, Clinton responded to a
question from chief executive Lloyd Blankfein, who quipped that you go to
Washington" to "make a small fortune." Clinton agreed with the comment and
complained about ethics rules that require officials to divest from certain
assets before entering government. "There is such a bias against people who
have led successful and/or complicated lives," Clinton said.

Gee, I thought people went to Washington to serve their country and their
fellow Americans. Nope. Hillary's going there, again, to get rich.
At our expense, of course, since she's "kind of far removed" from folks like us.

"You just have to sort of figure out how to … balance the public and the
private efforts that are necessary to be successful, politically, and that's
not just a comment about today. Politics is like sausage being made. It is
unsavory, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need
to be. But if everybody's watching, you know, all of the back room discussions
and the deals, you know, then people get a little nervous, to say the least.
So, you need both a public and a private position."

Got that? Hillary needs to keep her machinations secret. But not Trump's!
Hillary needs both a "public" and a "private" position, so she can fool the
rubes while assuaging her corporate benefactors. But not Trump! He's gotta
be pure as the driven snow while she can be as dirty as sin so long as she
ends up where she needs to be.

There's the Democrats' double standard — the ends justify the means.

Look, I get it. Politics ain't beanbag. But good grief, surely you can see
that there is one media standard for Democrats and a totally different, and
vastly more stringent standard being applied to Republicans.

So let's focus on the issues. And on the issues, Donald Trump beats Hillary
Clinton like a rented mule.

Donald Trump will respect our Second Amendment rights. Hillary Clinton has
pledged to stack the Supreme Court with rabid gun-grabbers.

Donald Trump will protect the unborn by re-authorizing the Hyde Amendment
and working to overturn Roe v. Wade. Hillary Clinton praises Margaret Sanger
while vowing to lavish federal funds on the charnal houses of Planned Parenthood.

Donald Trump will repeal Obamacare. Hillary Clinton helped craft Obamacare,
insists it's "working" (nonwithstanding that her husband says otherwise), and
would love to expand the government takeover of healthcare into a Single Payer
system of socialized medicine.

Donald Trump will reaffirm America's place as the leader of the Free World
and strengthen our military. Hillary Clinton is the architect of Obama's
failed foreign policy. She presided over the disastrous dissolution of Libya,
the debacle in Syria, the disengagement and surrender of Iraq to ISIS, and
of course the farcical Iran nuclear deal, which virtually guarantees the
mad mullahs will get The Bomb.

Donald Trump has pledged to cut taxes to put more money into our pockets.
Hillary Clinton wants to raise taxes by trillions of dollars and continue
to inflate the deficit to finance an unprecedented expansion of the cradle
to grave nanny state. Donald Trumps wants Americans to be self-sufficient;
Hillary Clinton wants Americans to be dependent on government largess.

I could go on. On issue after issue, from energy policy to education to
religious liberty to free speech to border security Donald Trump and the
Republican Party are on the side of freedom and liberty while Hillary Clinton
and the Democrats are determined to undermine the Constitution, the Bill
of Rights, and American sovereignty.

Donald Trump will make America great again. Hillary Clinton will continue
Barack Obama's legacy of failure. The choice is clear. Donald Trump must
become the next president of the United States.

Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, told the fundraiser audience that
half of the supporters for Trump, the Republican nominee, could be put into a
"basket of deplorables."

"Racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic, you name it," Clinton
said. "There are people like that and he has lifted them up."

Can you smell the preening moral superiority? She's better than us,
and her supporters are likewise better than Trump's supporters. In
Hillary-ville, if you're not voting for Her, you need an "intervention."

Clinton was speaking at an LGBT fundraiser in New York City, where she
encouraged supporters to "stage an intervention" if they have friends
considering voting for Trump.

And if that doesn't work, after her coronation she'll ship us off to
re-education camps.

"That may be one conversion therapy I'd endorse," said Clinton, referring to
a type of counseling designed to urge gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender
children to change their sexual orientation.

Winston Smith, please call your office.

Because the thing is, Hillary doesn't think she said anything wrong. Liberal
Democrats actually believe in their moral and intellectual superiority. It's
a part of their DNA. Their smugness is matched only by their insufferability.
It's our fault for not recognizing their intrinsic munificence, and
woe unto us for our unwillingness to submit to the obvious greatness of their
political policies.

Speaking in Homewood, PA on Friday, Bill Clinton criticized the "coal people"
in West Virginia for supporting Donald Trump.

"We all know how [Hillary's] opponent has done well down in West Virginia
and eastern Kentucky," the former president told the crowd at the Greater
Pittsburgh Coliseum. "The coal people don't like any of us [Democrats] anymore."

But there they go again, assuming they know best, and anyone who disagrees
must be some kind of slack-jawed luddite swigging corn whiskey and muttering
about the gubmint.

Remember when Bill felt your pain? Yeah, well, he's moved on, and it was all
a ploy anyway.

What kind of president despises and insults half of her constituents?

A fitting followup to Obama, that's what. He hates most of us, and he hates
pretty much everything America used to stand for. Hillary will be the
culmination of his fundamental transformation. They want a nation of serfs,
obediently subservient to the Democratic Party elite.

Johnson said that the big issue at hand is that there isn't a central election
system since the states run elections. "There's no one federal election system.
There are some 9,000 jurisdictions involved in the election process," Johnson said.

"There's a national election for president, there are some 9,000 jurisdictions
that participate, contribute to collecting votes, tallying votes and reporting
votes," he said.

This of course is a feature of our Republic. But Democrats don't see
it that way.

Because it's so much easier for them to cheat when there's only one central
system for collecting votes, tallying votes, and reporting votes. So bring on
DHS, under the guise of protecting us from "hackers."

A federal court ruled Thursday that the State Department has until Sept. 13 to
begin handing over emails recovered by the FBI from Hillary Clinton's private
server.

"The State Department shall search the material, determine whether any
responsive records exist, and complete its first production of non-exempt
records, to the extent any exist, by September 13, 2016," the court ruled.

Judicial Watch said the department has admitted in a court filing for a
separate lawsuit that some of the emails that Clinton had deleted included
some "Benghazi-related documents."

"Benghazi-related documents."

Was Chelsea's wedding held in Benghazi?

No?

Then "Benghazi-related documents" aren't personal.

And deleting them is a felony.

Not that anyone in the Obama administration will prosecute the Dowager Empress
of Chappaqua. Jim Comey made that fact painfully clear.

She's counting on being elected president in order to avoid prosecution.

Vote Trump!

Because where there's
smoke, there's
fire. And Hillary Clinton belongs in the Big House, not the White House.

Judicial Watch today released
725 pages of new State Department documents, including previously
unreleased email exchanges in which former Hillary Clinton's top aide Huma
Abedin provided influential Clinton Foundation donors special, expedited
access to the secretary of state. In many instances, the preferential
treatment provided to donors was at the specific request of Clinton
Foundation executive Douglas Band.

The Abedin emails reveal that the longtime Clinton aide apparently served as
a conduit between Clinton Foundation donors and Hillary Clinton while Clinton
served as secretary of state. In more than a dozen email exchanges, Abedin
provided expedited, direct access to Clinton for donors who had contributed
from $25,000 to $10 million to the Clinton Foundation. In many instances,
Clinton Foundation top executive Doug Band, who worked with the Foundation
throughout Hillary Clinton's tenure at State, coordinated closely with Abedin.
In Abedin's June deposition to Judicial Watch, she conceded that part of her
job at the State Department was taking care of
"Clinton
family matters."

Clinton Crime Family Matters, to be exact. Because the Clinton
Foundation is the epitome of Pay To Play.

Included among the Abedin-Band emails is an exchange revealing that when Crown
Prince Salman of Bahrain requested a meeting with Secretary of State Clinton,
he was forced to go through the Clinton Foundation for an appointment. Abedin
advised Band that when she went through "normal channels" at State, Clinton
declined to meet. After Band intervened, however, the meeting was set up
within forty-eight hours.

How's that for service? And the price? A mere $32 million to the Clinton
Global Initiative, ostensibly for "scholarships."

"These new emails confirm that Hillary Clinton abused her office by selling
favors to Clinton Foundation donors," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
"There needs to be a serious, independent investigation to determine whether
Clinton and others broke the law."

An independent investigation? You mean like Jim Comey's FBI whitewash? Gimme
a break. Loretta Lynch would sooner prosecute her own mother before glancing
in Hillary's direction.

Hillary and Huma are corrupt to the core. And yet they're poised to occupy the
highest office in the land. Because in the Democratic Party's quest for power,
anything goes, and crime really does pay. Handsomely.

Hillary Clinton put the State Department up for sale, with top aides pulling
strings and doing favors for fat-cat donors to the Clinton Foundation —
including a shady billionaire, according to smoking-gun emails released Tuesday.

The stunning revelations include how wealthy contributors seeking influence or
prestigious government gigs could fork over piles of cash to get access to
Clinton's inner circle, including top aides Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills.

Read
the whole thing. But briefly, the head of the Clinton Foundation arranged
a meeting between top US officials and a shady Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire
who gave them between $1 million and $5 million and also pledged $1 billion to
the Clinton Global Initiative, all on the say-so of Hillary confidant Cheryl
Mills.

The phrase "[it is] important to take care of" this person was used by Mills.

Hmm, "important" indeed. Gotta keep those dollars flowing.

Hillary also used her stint at State to
enrich Bill. She went to bat for an embattled Bangladeshi banker who then
arranged for payments to Bill from an Abu Dhabi oil company.

A Daily Caller News Foundation investigation traced the convoluted payment by
TAQA — formally known as the the Abu Dhabi National Energy Company —
to Muhammad Yunus' Grameen Bank. Yunus is a long-time friend and Clinton
Foundation donor.

The oil company deal eventually put as much as $500,000 into President Bill
Clinton's pockets via a speaking fee he got in Scotland.

Hillary puts the "quid" in quid pro quo, if you know what I mean, and
I think you do.

These are not new concerns. People had been speculating that the Clinton
Foundation had become a private version of the State Department, offering
easy access to the State Department policy decision-making process for the
wealthy and well-connected throughout Obama's first term.

So I conclude, not without some reluctance, that the Wall Street Journal's
Bill McGurn is right: the best case for Donald Trump is this: the
alternative is Hillary Clinton.

The economy? "There is zero reason to believe a Clinton administration would
be any improvement over the past eight years, from taxes and spending and
regulation to ObamaCare. "

Social issues? Hillary Clinton is "the candidate who touts the Planned
Parenthood view of human life, who sees nothing wrong with forcing nuns
to provide employees with contraceptives, and who supports the Obama
administration's bid to compel K-through-12 public schools to open girls'
bathrooms to males who identify as female."

Foreign affairs? Think the Russian "reset" (how's that working out?) Benghazi,
and the "deal" with Iran.

The Supreme Court? To ask the question is to answer it.

In short, as McGurn concludes, Donald Trump "represents a huge risk." But --
and it's a large "but" -- "honesty requires that this risk be weighed against
a clear-eyed look at the certainties a Hillary Clinton administration would
bring."

There are 6,000 some odd political appointees residing in the Executive Branch.
Staffers in DOJ, EPA, IRS, Agriculture, Energy, Commerce, the military, and
elsewhere. Barack Obama has filled those slots with Lois Lerner and Elizabeth
Warren clones. Hillary Clinton would keep them in place.
Donald Trump can't wait to fire them all.

Meanwhile Turkey is imploding, with Recep Erdogan
purging moderates while moving our NATO partner into an alliance with
every other Middle Eastern Islamic dictatorship. Hillary Clinton allowed
that to happen.

Barack Obama has set the stage for open warfare on police. Black Lives
Matter, regardless of their stated intentions, has become a terrorist
organization. Dallas, Baton Rouge, Milwaukee, Kansas City, the story is
the same — an "activist" took it upon himself to kill policemen,
in order to protest "injustice."

Those cops have families. Those cops did nothing wrong. And yet Barack
Obama has refused to light the White House blue to memorialize them even
though he didn't hesitate to put up rainbow lights in celebration of
sodomite "marriage" or purple lights for a dead rock star. No doubt Hillary
Clinton agrees with his racist, and divisive decision, since she bashed the
police during a recent
speech to the NAACP.

The Vermont senator's campaign announced his participation minutes after the
Clinton team's email hit inboxes, with both announcements sharing the same
language that the two former primary rivals will "discuss their commitment to
building an America that is stronger together and an economy that works for
everyone, not just those at the top."

I guess he forgot the part about her being
unqualified for the presidency.

"She has been saying lately that she thinks I am quote-unquote not qualified
to be president," Sanders said. "Let me just say in response to Secretary
Clinton, I don't believe that she is qualified if she is through her super PAC
taking tens of millions of dollars in special-interest money. I don't think you
are qualified if you get $15 million through Wall Street for your super PAC."

She's still in the pocket of Wall Street fat cats Bernie. For way more than
$15 million too. Maybe she shared some of that cash with you to help you
change your mind?

"I don't think you are qualified if you have voted for the disastrous war in
Iraq," he continued, referring to Clinton's 2002 vote as a U.S. senator from
New York.

Sanders also criticized Clinton's past support of trade deals, suggesting that
that also undermines her ability to be president.

I'm thinking these quotes need to be in every GOP attack ad between now and
November. Hillary's record in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, Egypt, and Russia is
one of failure and chaos. Everything she touched while Secretary of State has
gotten worse. Her trade deals have cost American jobs. And her Wall Street
donor list is a who's who of the .001%, belying Bernie's populist posturing.

He played you for suckers. He was only in the race to bask in your adulation
while the Secret Service fed his ego. Now he expects you to follow him into
the abyss behind a congenital liar cum career criminal in the interest
of "party unity."

Pretty wild coming from someone Hillary once
said she's "not even sure" is actually a Democrat, eh?

But he's gonna be the nominee. And not for nothing, anyone is better
than Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The nation can probably survive 4, or even 8 years of President Trump.

America as we know it won't last six months after the Dowager Empress of
Chappaqua is inaugurated.

Why? Because she'll finish what Obama started, erasing the Bill of Rights,
trampling the Constitution, coddling our enemies, ruining the economy, and
opening our borders to the Mohammedan hordes and Mexican drug lords. Oh, not
to mention the enshrinement of Pay-to-Play as the only way to get anything
done in her White House.

Hillary will irrevocably send our nation down the rathole of green
energy, bankrupting the coal, oil, and gas companies as she pours trillions of
tax dollars into pie-in-the-sky renewable generation fantasies.

Hillary will bury all the misdeeds of the Obama administration like
Fast and Furious, Solyndra, Benghazi, Lois Lerner's weaponized IRS, EPA
overreach, State Department stonewalling, the disastrous Iran "deal," and
the stench at the VA. And of course if she's president we'll never know the
extent of the corruption at the Clinton Foundation or where all the money they
supposedly raised for Haiti actually ended up.

Donald Trump will pour some much needed disinfectant on all that's rotten
in the Democratic Party. Can you imagine how much fun Attorney General Chris
Christie is going to have prosecuting everyone who ever worked for BHO and HRC?
And Valerie Jarrett will probably defect to Iran the day after Trump is elected.

And of course, speaking of misdeeds, Hillary Clinton is under investigation
by the FBI for serious breaches of national security.

Donald Trump isn't.

The presidency must be denied to Hillary Clinton. Of that there can
be no doubt. Donald Trump is the last person standing in her way. Ergo, it's
time to man up and endorse Donald Trump for president of the United States.

Sanders got to appoint two people to the Democratic Party's platform committee.
Here's who he chose:

Professor Cornel West not only has called the Israeli prime minister a war
criminal but openly supports the BDS movement (boycott, divestment, and
sanctions), the most important attempt in the world to ostracize and
delegitimize Israel.

West is joined on the committee by the longtime pro-Palestinian activist James
Zogby. Together, reported the New York Times, they "vowed to upend what they
see as the party's lopsided support of Israel."

Like I said above, the farther left you go, the more virulant is the Jew-hatred.

It's not exactly a smoking gun. And it's certainly not a stinging rebuke. But
at least it's not a total whitewash either. The State Department's Inspector
General has finally issued a report on Hillary Clinton's private email server,
and yes,
it says she broke the rules.

The State Department's independent watchdog has issued a highly critical
analysis of Hillary Clinton's email practices while running the department,
concluding that she failed to seek legal approval for her use of a private
email server and that department staff would not have given its blessing
because of the "security risks in doing so."

The inspector general, in a long awaited review obtained Wednesday by The
Washington Post in advance of its publication, found that Clinton's use of
private email for public business was "not an appropriate method" of preserving
documents and that her practices failed to comply with department policies
meant to ensure that federal record laws are followed.

The report says Clinton, who is the Democratic presidential front-runner,
should have printed and saved her emails during her four years in office or
surrendered her work-related correspondence immediately upon stepping down in
February 2013. Instead, Clinton provided those records in December 2014, nearly
two years after leaving office.

The report found that a top Clinton aide was warned in 2010 that the system
may not properly preserve records but dismissed those worries, indicating that
the system passed legal muster. But the inspector general said it could not
show evidence of a review by legal counsel.

So far so good, right?

Here comes the "but."

The 83-page report reviews email practices by five secretaries of state and
generally concludes that record keeping has been spotty for years.

It was particularly critical of former secretary of state Colin Powell —
who has acknowledged publicly that he used a personal email account to conduct
business — concluding that he too failed to follow department policy
designed to comply with public-record laws.

And there you have it. The "everybody else was doing it" defense.

It's a smokescreen big enough to hide all of her transgressions.

You watch. The FBI will say they can't recommend indicting Hillary because
they didn't indict Colin Powell way-back-when.

And then all the way to November, no matter what Trump says about Crooked
Hillary, her media sycophants will keep spinning the lack of an indictment
as "proving" she was "cleared."

He and She Who Would Be Empress have collected at least
$100 million dollars from Arab sheikhs and their autocratic and
anti-Semetic regimes.

A Daily Caller News Foundation investigation reveals that Bill and Hillary
Clinton received at least $100 million from autocratic Persian Gulf states
and their leaders, potentially undermining Democratic presidential candidate
Hillary's claim she can carry out independent Middle East policies.

As a presidential candidate, the amount of foreign cash the Clintons have
amassed from the Persian Gulf states is "simply unprecedented," says national
security analyst Patrick Poole.

"These regimes are buying access. You've got the Saudis. You've got the
Kuwaitis, Oman, Qatar and the UAE. There are massive conflicts of interest.
It's beyond comprehension," Poole told TheDCNF in an interview.

Overall, the Clinton Foundation has received upwards of $85 million in
donations from five Persian Gulf states and their monarchs, according to
the foundation's website.

The Clinton Foundation's ties go beyond support from governments. Four
billionaire Saudis, along with groups the Dubai Foundation and Friends of
Saudi Arabia, contributed another $30 million to the Clinton Foundation,
according to the foundation's website.

Those governments are some of the most horrific abusers of human rights in the
world.

For years, the accusations have centered on the Persian Gulf practice of
importing hundreds of thousands of poor foreign laborers who work for low
wages, including hundreds of thousands of female "domestic workers" who have
no labor rights and often face exploitation and sexual abuse.

I wonder how all the Clinton supporters wailing about North Carolina's
"bathroom law" feel about that? Oh, right, it's a non-story, because
Hillary has a vagina.

And money in politics is only bad when it comes from the Koch
Brothers. Pure-as-the-driven-snow Hillary would never let a donor
influence her stance on an important issue. Honest!

Yet as secretary of state, Clinton consciously and actively sought to
legitimize the sheikdoms through many new Department of State programs.

It's unclear what kind of promises or concessions the Clintons may have given
the monarchs in return for their lavish financial support over the years, but
last month the candidate reversed her long-standing support for fracking.

Hillary's new position, unveiled last month at a CNN presidential debate with
Democratic opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders, put her in alignment with the Gulf
State policy that opposes North American oil and gas fracking.

My wife is at this moment watching CNN, where Anderson Cooper is cumming in
his pants at the prospect of Hillary Clinton being elected president.

He's not alone.

The forces of darkness are rejoicing.

Trump was, is, and always will be a stalking horse for Hitlery.

That's why Bill Clinton convinced him to seek the GOP nomination.

That's the plan the three of them concocted in Chappaqua, to divide and
conquer the Real Republicans.

Remember how Trump
praised Hitlery, time and time again? That's because he believes in her.

And you morons fell for it.

Mark my words, Donald Trump cannot, and will not win in November. His
negatives are
sky-high. His appeal is skin-deep.

Not that he'd be any better if he did win. In many ways he's more liberal
than she is. Can you imagine his
pro-abortion, sharia-loving sister on the Supreme Court? You'll beg
the senate to confirm Merrick Garland.

Hillary Clinton's tyranny will make you yearn for Barack Obama. The IRS, the
EPA, the DOJ, OSHA, ATF, TSA, probably even the postal inspectors, they're
all coming for us. Re-education camps won't be the half of it.

I wonder if I'll be loaded into a boxcar before the Islamists face off against
the homofascists. Seventh century shithole, here we come.

In
her four-page decision, Guadagno, who doubles as New Jersey's secretary
of state, said she reviewed the record and the objections raised to Judge Jeff
Masin's initial ruling.

"After full consideration of the record, as well as Judge Masin's thorough and
well researched initial decision and the exceptions filed with my office, I,
Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno, as secretary of state and chief election official of
the state of New Jersey, adopt Judge Masin's initial decision in its entirety,"
Guadagno said.

They're now 0 for 9. In addition to New Jersey and Texas, New York, New
Hampshire, Utah, Arkansas, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Alabama have all
ruled in favor of Cruz's eligibility.

Will the Trump slappies give up on this silliness now?

Don't count on it.

They're still
whining about getting their butts kicked in Colorado's caucuses because
they forgot to read the rules. And I hear they're setting themselves up for
a similar whooping in California, again because complaining is easier than
working on a competent ground game.

Oh, but take heart Trumpaholics,
Karl Rove is "warming up" to your lord and master. And we all know how
effective his endorsement has been lately, right?

Tee hee.

Incidentally, I watched Ted and Heidi Cruz on CNN's townhall last night, and
I gotta tell you guys, they both came off great. Ted was relaxed,
confident, and well received. Heidi really completes him too. She's one
dynamite lady. And their kids? Cute as buttons. The whole hour was focused
on "family" so there were no policy questions, but that's OK because seeing
and hearing the human side of a candidate is equally important.

I've heard people say that Ted's demeanor is off-putting and "prosecutorial."
Well, that certainly wasn't the case last night, which bodes well for his
candidacy.
